The Other Book of John: Remembering My Home and Native Land

Did John's belief in God influence his life? In June 1933, Canada was in the depths of an ongoing Depression. As the third child born into a poor farm family working a hilly fifty acres littered with boulders, John Geen grew up amid a turbulent childhood where he learned to go without and relied on his faith in God. In a retelling of his life experiences, Geen chronicles his often obstacle-lined road to future fortune that began in the stubble fields of Manitoba harvesting wheat. He dealt with a cantankerous old rooster, school adventures and influences, and misfortunes that tested him in ways he never imagined. As he leads others through his varied experiences, Geen details his path as he dropped out of high school to marry the love of his life, started a family, secured jobs without academic credentials, relocated to the United States, and overcame seemingly insurmountable odds to attain professional success. The Other Book of John is the true story of how an uneducated boy emerged from poverty and the obscurity of an Ontario farm to realize personal and professional accomplishments.
